JetBlue Reveals First JFK Lounge Renderings, Targets Opening This Month

A boutique lounge network signals a premium loyalty pivot tied to cardholder access.

Overview

  • CEO Joanna Geraghty unveiled the Terminal 5 mock-ups at the Skift Aviation Forum, featuring an 8,000-square-foot space with a Grand Central–inspired ceiling.
  • JetBlue says the JFK lounge is expected to open in about two weeks this month, with some amenities such as a photo booth potentially coming online after day one.
  • Access will be offered to holders of JetBlue’s new premium credit card, Mosaic 4 elites, and travelers flying Mint to Europe.
  • The next lounge is slated for Boston in 2026 with an expected footprint of about 11,000 square feet and an opening no earlier than mid-year.
  • JetBlue is exploring a Fort Lauderdale location as it builds a curated lounge footprint rather than large hub-scale clubs.
